Greetings citizens! You may notice the audio sounds different in this video. I’m trying out a different audio editing and this is the first video I’m testing. Please let me know if you think it sounds better or worse. Trying to improve YOUR listening experience ❤
This audio only makes the sound play in one of my headphones unfortunately
Hi! The sound is worse for me sorry. It's only coming from the left side and not clear.
Same here @@Hkimmie3
The sound is way worse
I´m sorry but to me it´s worse, because I only get sound in my left earplug.
After brutally murdering somebody and only getting 4 years in prison, you need to just shut up and do your time and not even ask to get out early.
AGREED
Right? The nerve, yo.
Everyone that watched and didn’t stop this are complicit. Rest in Peace Serena.😢
I don’t believe in leniency for violent crimes in general whether juvenile or not. I believe the lack of consequences and accountability are a part of the increase in overall crimes and therefore we as a society need to take action accordingly.
Personal responsibility is SO important and yet so elusive. We are encouraged as a society to place blame everywhere else. It is deeply saddening.
👏👏👏👏👏👏@@TheTinFoilTiara
They should have gotten a lot more time than that. 30+ years. It’s so unfair these kids can murder another child and go on to live their lives
AGREED.
As soon as you said Canada, I already knew they wouldnt get long enough sentences. They should have been tried as adults. This was an absolutely brutal crime.
This is outrageous! Even if none of the group standing around had the backbone to step in, how did NOBODY call emergency services after the assault??!!! If it was freezing, they ALL had to know she would freeze to death at the very least !!!!! Disgusting!!!!
My sympathy to Serena’s family. I can’t imagine the pain they have and still endure. Rest in peace beautiful Serena.
Excellent work , Britt , as always.
It’s called the bystander effect. People are less likely to help others if nobody else is doing it. If one person did then it would have a chain reaction and others would to. Nobody wants to be the first and stand out from the crowd
As a mama of 3, one being a pre teen girl... cases like this enrage & terrify me
I'm a mom 0f 3 girls. Hubby always asks me Why I watch these sad cases and I tell him that I want to know every possible way my child could be harmed. I wanna know what these kids are doing to their peers and I want to know what it took to get them kids in the car with that stranger. I want it to frighten and terrify me so I know to be cautious with my own. I tell my kids every story I hear about young kids getting kidnapped or murdered from talking to people online. Apparently social media has threw away the whole idea of stranger danger and Imma put the fear in my girls to NEVER meet anyone or trust anyone online. I told my girls I dont care if they have a weapon, most likely they wont shoot you in public, you make as much noise and put up the biggest fight of your life cause once you get in that car, chances of finding you decreased by more than half. I hate hearing about these things but Im sure that informing myself of the many ways crimes are done against children, help me keep my kids safe. I watch these videos and Im so angry and hurt for the families but most of all Im terrified for future generations. Too many crimes against children smh.
Omg.. same here 😢
@@Aidenthespidersame here!!! Girls nowadays are evil. I am terrified for my kids.
right? it's so scary.
I will NEVER understand why people record other people fighting, even as adults I still see other adults recording fights on social media. I absolutely can not even fathom people recording someone getting beat to death & not stepping in & stopping this tragedy. It is a very sad & cruel world these days!!
Its not even a fight when one cant conset, cowerdly acts.
As a Canadian, the Young Offenders Act makes me sick. Wayyy too lenient. I live in Nova Scotia and a few weeks ago we had some youths that murdered a 16 year old boy in Halifax. They’re saying they want to charge them as adults (I think they’ve arrested four or five youths at this point!! This honestly hurts my heart, not only for the young man that died, but for the families of all involved) but I’m not holding my breath for an adult sentence. We will have to see how this particular case pans out in future. The Young Offender’s Act needs to change!!!!!
I have no faith in the justice system at ALLLLLL DISGUSTING
They did NOT get enough time. Can we please all go back to home schooling our kids?! 🤦🏼♀️ How are these kids turning out like this?!
it's honestly so scary.
That’s not a fight, as a teenager who went to house parties and saw several and unfortunately participated in a couple, that’s beyond anything I’ve ever heard.
Right? I attended many a house party in my high school years (late 90's, early 2000's) and NOTHING like this ever happened. Fights happen, but this is just insane. Those kids are animals.
oh, i know. it's insane.
Exactly. Being set up by so called "friends" to get jumped is not a "fight." I've been in many fights lol.
Adult actions call for adult consequences. Her family have to live with their Consequences for life So why didn't they get time that impacted their life? Canada is far too soft
where is the lie
My name is Sarena it's so strange hearing you tell this heartbreaking story while saying my name. Sending love to her family. 🖤
i can only imagine.
Good morning BrattPack! We love you, Britt! Thank you for giving this sweet girl a voice again. Your empathy, hard work and dedication to victims & their families is unmatched.
As a Canadian ... 4 year sentences for what they did ...is just as horrific and disgusting as what they not only did, but recorded and bragged about. Disgusting.
Rest in Peace, Love and Serenity Serena ❤️ 💚
BTW. .. Brit your comment about hoping the lawyer stretched before that leap .....BAHAHAHA ....SO Accurate!!
When Brat talks to me I feel like we’re having a chat over coffee, wearing shapeless pajamas and comfortable robes. She makes it look easy but this is NOT a style everyone can just do.
Same! It helps that I am actually usually wearing PJ's though 🤭
you're the best. i just do be talkin.
@@BRATTERSTEIN Idea for your next live: PJ's and wine. Lemme know in advance though, I'm in England 😅
Oh my gah!! You covered it!!! 😢❤ I’ve been following her story since the day the news broke.
i did!
I’m gutted after listening to this case. I’ll remember Serena as I walk my puppy through the misty park today 💜❤️
It's wonderful that you cover stories of our native women RIP Serena hope your story brings change
I never can understand how some people can stand back and watch someone getting hurt and do absolutely nothing.
It’s called the bystander effect. Nobody wants to stand out from the crowd and be the first to help. But if one person helped her more would have joined in and helped. I always try to be the first person because of that
This is one of the worst miscarriages of justice I have ever seen. Kids as young as 12 or 15 have been tried as adults. There is something especially primitive and more vicious about beating someone to death without a weapon. They had a choice after each and every blow to stop. Every bystander should have been charged with disregard for human life and obstruction of justice. The mitigation was outweighed by the continued assault, bragging, filming and sharing, failure to prevent hypothermia, text content, suborning of witnesses, attempts to lie, cover up and tampering of evidence. I could go on. It is not just that she was indigenous and they rarely get justice. This could be anywhere anytime to anyone's child. My God how are we raising teens to not only not report an injured person but not intercede. Canada, you will have this stain forever. Shame on all who did little or nothing. Not even a blanket to cover her. I am shaking I am so angry. 30 years min should have been the minimum and lucky not to get life.
I would think the kids would think the sentencing would make kids think if we do this we won't get in that much trouble. Forget what the tape makes them think.
The feeling of comfort I get when I see you've posted is unmatched🥰☺️🤗
I don’t think they served enough time at all! This is heartbreaking on so many levels 😢
agreed!
9:30pm over here in Australia! So glad i have something to listen to before bed 😊 thank you Brittany! ❤
hope you sleep well.
Thank you for covering her story on MMIW Day!! I’m aboriginal from Canada and my daughter danced at school today with her friend for #MMIW
Also a sweat lodge is an scared place where you go to heal, pray, be blessed, each person experience sweat lodge differently but for me I felt empowered, I felt like myself for the first time in 20 years with no anxiety, I honestly felt normal for once. We sang in our cultural language, we prayed but mostly we healed.
Lenae Cook and Chrissy Jacobs just because you did “time,” doesn’t make you a hard scary human, I would be more afraid when I die because you are going to have to stand before God and that’s your judgment day. There’s a special place in hell for you little girls.
#RememberMe ❤🦅🪶🪶
Such injustice in Canada. It reminds me of the killing of Daniel Levesque by Josh Bredo. My husband went to high school with this killer in our home town. He skirted the justice system and is out living life after killing Daniel with a hammer.
They cried when they saw the video in court? Did they cry when the recorded and uploaded it? No.
exactly.
Omg this is horrific! I am Canadian, and I've never heard of her story.
Life in prison, this shouldn't even be questioned.
My condolences to her family, and I hope she is resting peacefully. ❤
Yes, we use 911 here lol
This is a sickening and too common event as we have seen in so many other cases. My heart breaks for the family. While mental health issues are important, I'm so tired of this as an "excuse". Unless it is a severe case, it's no excuse. Those girls are cowards and the crowd who stood by and did nothing are just as guilty. It's sickening that it was recorded, but what better evidence. Canada is too soft on crime in general. They absolutely should have been charged as adults.
You said something in the beginning of the video along the lines of girls being "important" in the families of indigenous people. This surprised me considering the lack of help with all of the missing and murdered indigenous women cases.
Thank you for making Mondays more enjoyable!!
thankyou for being here.
I can’t even imagine what her family went through. God bless their souls!! First of all, the girls didn’t get near enough time for what they did. They were under the influence of alcohol, maybe drugs also. They thought they were adult enough for that and they committed a horrible crime. Horrible doesn’t even describe it actually. They didn’t care about their families while they were beating that girl so why should the judge? They bragged about it, laughed about it, and put the pictures and videos on social media. They should have been tried as adults and given the time that should’ve been given in the first place. Instead they got a slap on the hand. I also believe that several others should’ve gotten something just for cheering them on, not helping that girl. Thank you for sharing your videos.
Oh my gosh. The second i saw that picture with 'ive been chilling' i was waiting for the catchphrase 😅
I wonder what the principle meant by drugs, because he did inform the police, i dont think he was making excuses as such, but possibly highlighting how inhumane the attack was? I cant imagine how Serena's family feels.
Murder is considered an adult crime. So They should have been tried as adults. They got lenient sentences. If they’re willing to beat a girl so viciously and even saying that they wanted her dead, in my opinion, it won’t stop it from happening again. They’re not going to learn anything with leniency sentencing. It’s like a slap on the wrist. My ex best friend kept her kids home from school for 3 months straight. Claiming they were sick the entire time when in actuality she was just too hungover from daily alcohol and drugs usage and didn’t feel like taking the kids to school. She got a slap on the wrist not learning anything because she still claims they were all sick. If my child had been sick for a whole month, I would have taken them to the doctor. Shoot, if my child was still sick for two weeks, I would’ve taken them to the doctor. So for 3 months of allegedly being sick, she didn’t take them to the doctor. She should have had consequences for her actions. A fine, community service, taking parenting classes, being checked on randomly to make sure the kids were doing fine and that she was doing what she was supposed to do. or all the above. Her kids were neglected and she’s in denial of that. Believes that she always had the best interest of her kids at heart.
Hi, thank you for covering this case and keeping her memory alive. Often Indigenous victims (regardless of who the perpetrator was race/ethnicity wise) aren’t given a platform to spread their story to a broader audience.
I’m mixed Anishinaabe and come from a reserve near Sagkeeng but grew up in Winnipeg, Manitoba. I just wanted to say a few things to help you or the audience out here.
1. Aboriginal is a term that is getting phased out because of colonial past. First Nations is what we’re usually referred to here in Canada, but Native is also fine!
2. Sagkeeng is a First Nation reserve (I know it’s usually called a reservation in America) and is usually pronounced sag-geen (I don’t speak Anishinaabe so the proper pronunciation is lost on me).
3. Canada also uses 911 for our emergency services number.
4. As for ceremony it’s where a feast, speeches, prayers, medicine (like smudging with sage), traditional drumming/singing and a sacred fire take place. The duration of the fire depends at times, but I’ve known it to burn for 3 days straight. Its purpose is to help us connect to the spirit world to communicate and also guide the spirit on their journey there.
I’m 23 this year and it shocked me hearing that we’re so close in age, her being 19 and me being 16 at the time. So heartbreaking that time keeps passing by and she’s forever 19. 💔
My family was affected by a brutal murder as well. I will never think that the influence of drugs or alcohol should give people less time served. I think that our countries rehabilitation programs in jail and prison are nowhere near effective enough to even excuse our leniency of perpetrators in the first place.
Always enjoy your presentation of each case. Thank you
I’m an aboriginal Canadian and thank you Bratterstein for showing Serenity the honor & respect she deserves. It means more than you know to us. The Canadian government uses publication bans and privacy acts to hide from the world the horrific damage they have done and continue to do to indigenous communities. What happened to Serenity is a crime and no one is denying that. However incarceration is only going to introduce those girls into gangs and the violence will continue. What indigenous elders suggest is healing programs which are also monitored and regulated facilities. The indigenous believe in healing the individuals using indigenous methods and medicines and it has been proven to be more effective and lessens the chance of re-offending. Especially with victims of sexual or physical abuse and substance users. Indigenous people are vastly over-represented and make up a rising share in the Canadian prison system, making up 30.04% of the offender population in 2020. When Indigenous persons only make up 5% of the total Canadian population- that’s not right.
Hi from South Africa 🇿🇦 Love it when you post. ❤
The way I switched videos. 🏃♀️ 🏃♀️
Lol Same here
Haha, same here! I abandoned whatever I was watching to come here!
YOU RULE
Same, my first time watching this channel
RIP Serena, you did not deserve this at all. 😢
I look forward to waking up to your videos on Monday morning Brittney! I wish you'd do more makeup videos...I've upped my makeup game since watching you do yours! Please consider covering Alianna Defreeze pretty please and thank you. My heart hurts for the victims family...I can't even imagine.
our justice system is so broken. I just recently found you and i have watched about a video a day of yours and listened to all the time these people have gotten. People that didnt even kill the person have gotten more time for attempt of murder. That lady who got 25 to life over her husbands death didn't even kill him it was her lover. Now here were are and these girls were caught on camera beating this girl and she died and that's all the time they could give them. so broken....
These two monsters should have be tried as adults and got at least 25 year this is not justice at all rip Sarena
Thanks as always ...look so forward to your videos!! There was NO JUSTICE !! This was brutal and planned she would not have died of hypothermia had they not beat her unconscious and let her outside ....the beating killed her and they were proud ...they posted it !!! They should have been tried as adults or atleast got the max for juveniles...prayers for this family
100% agree with you.
Thank you for all your hard work putting together these videos love your work i try not to miss your uploads your voice makes me feel better I be having a bad play one your videos my bad mood gone
You do such a great job on your videos. I’m sorry I’m not watching when they come on. Work to do. I like listening to you as I lay in bed. Your voice is so soothing. Thank you for all of your hard work! ❤
Should have been charged as adults. The people who watched and filmed it then did nothing Should have been charged too.
Case idea. Austin Randolph and Brittany Bearden in edgefield SC. She was found on the side of the road but our news wouldn't cover the whole story for some reason
This is absolutely heartbreaking!! 💔 we just had very similar tragedy happen to a 14 year old boy in our small town. He was jumped and stabbed to death at the local park and there were kids laughing and taking videos and sent them all over the social media 😔this just happened in April 24th 💔
I cannot believe how much time they got! That is no where near enough , this is horrofic 😢
17:10 dude this is wild. I wish people understood that all it takes is one hit to the correct spot of someone head and they can literally got to sleep forever.
My husbands best friend died because he was playing around like most 16 year olds do. He fell from a very short distance and smacked his head on the ground. His brain immediately swelled and though the hospital tried everything possible he laid on lie support for weeks and then eventually he passed away.
These girls definitely should have been tried as adults. What they did was horrible and they should never be set free.
Absolutely wild these girls were in jail less time than it takes to complete high school.
i know. wtf.
She so beautiful. Thank you.
Going to commit such a disgusting crime then should be charged as an adult and get serious prison time.
They needed to be more harshly punished. Tried as minors?! Seriously?! Despicable handling of the case, Canada. Disgusting
I have been a subscriber of yours for a while now. I greatly appreciate you covering this case!! I remember reading about this when it first happened. It's such an awful situation. Thank you for highlighting the huge faults of the Canadian justice system! Particularly when it comes to indigenous women. Many people don't realize how seriously broken the Canadian justice system is, especially since there isn't as much coverage on true crime stories. (Just for future reference, our emergency number is also 911 - I am pretty certain this is accross all of North America). Loyal Canadian following 🙌❤️ keep up the amazing coverage of these people's story
Watching now, after I’m home from work. I like the audio ❤❤❤
OMG! This happened on my birthday! So tragic. Rest In Beautiful Peace!
Your audio sounds amazing!
Good thing the video was posted that way because these people provided the police with evidence that would have been harder to get if that group had no concern for anyone they might have lied.
So sad, my god 😢 Case suggestion plz: missing Roseville, CA woman Susan Jacobson ❤ I’m local to the area and the case is baffling. There aren’t many missing persons cases around here.
My tribe is from Canada 🇨🇦 a lot of fam over there.
I Always thought you were half Indian like me. Your beautiful cheekbones !!!
It’s such a tragic case.
Thank you for covering this.
#🇨🇦💜Serena❣️
GOOD MORNING BRITTANY THIS IS SO HEART BREAKING
it really is
Hey Brittany, so glad you posted. Gives me something to watch.😅❤😂
I’m just
every monday
Unbelievable the amount of prison time these murderers get. They should have been tried as adults and gone to prison for 20 years to life. The fact that Serena´s brother got the same time for robbery...terrible.
1997 hurt my soul… I was born in 98. Serena would’ve been turning 27 😭😭😭😭 this is horrible. Serena didn’t deserve ANY of this. Especially not to have people record her while something so vicious is happening. Shame on everybody that participated in this horrible fucking nasty behavior and murder.
Rest in love to Serena 🫶🏽 and I hope and pray that her family can get some sort of peace of mind without Serena one day.
Brit making my Monday's a little bit better ❤
This is so disgusting. She was a beautiful indigenous girl. She was so young!!!!!!! Are you kidding me? This could have been me as a child I’d be so mad if the girls that stomped on me in then in turn, I died. There’s no freaking justice here. I don’t like this at all. ❤ my heart and soul goes out to the mother. I’m so upset listening to this!!!!!!! And I bet they drink and act like menaces to society! How many people will fall victim to these “easy swayed and easily to be a follower of bad things.” Yeah they will both reoffend. Just watch my words. I’m so mad. I’m sorry but this isn’t fair. They should have been tried as adults listen to me: awful things have been done to me as a child, I was all of the things you can possibly think of, I could never fully put my hands on another individual out of fear that I would hurt them I have had to fight for life or death situations, this is inhumane. Nobody could ever force me to stomp on their face because nobody asked for that type of behavior. I’m so upset I still can’t get over this.
I follow several true crime channels...there's just something about how you do it...keep it up, luv!
Such a senseless tragedy!
It is 911 in Canada as the general emergency number.
This case is horrific. How could they beat that poor girl to death like that... what jerks. (Nicest word I could type, but NO WAY close to who those girls are)
i feel you.
One of us 👏🏾👏🏾
ONEOFUS!
God I remember scrolling online a few years ago and that video popped up 😢
thankfully i missed it back then.
It is 911 in Canada and RCMP are called police here too.
Thank you for covering a MMIW case.
I do have a really good case suggestion for you. I have been watching the show "Under the Bridge" on Hulu. You should do that case.
Great presentation. I have been with you from the start and have enjoyed watching you grow.❤
thank you so much!
Your video for some reason only played on my left AirPod lol all the other videos I watched played on both. So weird!
Terrible tragedy that truly did not get justice. Audio sounds great by the way.
I think they deserved a longer prison sentence.
As soon as I realized it was the video and not my earphones, it was fine.
My right headphone isn't picking up any sound from you 😭😭😭 and my left one is MIA right now ☠️
I'm back!!! Borrowed my husband's left headphone 🤣🤣🤣
ahhh i am sorry. i am working on fixing the audio for the next video. i didn't realize it only came from one side. i am new to all this stuff. i am glad you got your husbands!!
@@BRATTERSTEIN don't be sorry! Shit happens!!! You're talking to the least techno person ever 🤣 I really need to locate my left airpod ☠️☠️ the couch ate it
The sweat lodge is a very powerful spiritual ceremony and tradition I don't know about Canadian sweat lodge but it's very powerful. I'm of the opinion that they did the crime they should do the time but I think it should be a forfeiture of your life so prison but not bs like college ,commissary, conjugal visits,cell phones. The fact that prison is better than being on the street is no deterrent. WE need to fix this! Thank you for doing this I Love being one of us!😉🧡💜🧡
Poor sweet Serena, brings tears to my eyes and heart. I did see the video. This kids were demons! Poor sweet girl died saying sorry. 😢
Apparently, flirting with someone else's bf is a death sentence.
Rest in peace Serena Chelsea McKay
1997-2017
💔💔💔💔😭😭😭😭
Should have been tried and charged as adults. Such a horrific crime. The other people there at the time are complicit in Sereena's death. And it is 911.
I lost my mum on the 20th August 2024 and it is hard one minute ur talking the nxt there gone I had to watch her die even though she died of natural causes it's hard trying to come to terms with a death I pray her family and friends and hope they are all ok what a beautiful angel 😇 God as spread your beautiful angel 😇 wings and fly high beautiful angel 😇 x
They didn't have remorse they were only sorry they got caught
that's how i feel too.
Usually the case.
Can’t watch yet but commenting for your algorithm ❤
thankyou!
Our Canadian Justice system suck
Are you congested? I hope u feel better and thanks for the vid
Bruhhh, having kids is just 100% sickness always
Tried as adults are you kidding they absolutely needed 15 years
i know!
Thanks again being Canadian it's much appreciated xo yes we have 911 here
They should have been tried as adults. The time they got is ridiculous. Other troubled kids hearing this would not be afraid of getting arrested for murder would just tell themselves they’d only get a few years of prison. They took this girl’s life, and just got a few years? People get more time than that for drugs. I know this is Canada, and murderers don’t get long sentences, but at least get ten years.
😢 RIP Serena
I'm only getting audio in my right headphone if anyone else is experiencing that. But the quality sounds great!
Oh no I can’t listen. I use headphones and I’m completely deaf in left ear and it’s only coming through on the left side
